Vallejo Clay Workshop is located in beautiful downtown Vallejo.
This clay workshop was born in the pottery studio of Whitney Smith, founder and owner of Vallejo Clay workshop and has moved into it's own space. The studio is now located at 304 Georgia Street in beautiful downtown Vallejo.
The studio is an inspirational space where groups of students can gather and create work. The studio is currently equipped with throwing wheels, work tables, a slab roller, kilns, and a variety of tools needed to make functional or sculptural work.
Because space is limited, classes and workshops are small and individual attention to students is key. We will continue to add new classes, be sure to sign up for our email list so you can be the first to know!
